Guest BadBoy House Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 We use ntbackup to back up our server each night. Normally this works fine but since introducing a remote access solution for staff it seems that if staff leave a server based program open on their workstations the backup system doesn't back the files up. This is beginning to get problematic as some important data is being excluded from the backup. Other than trying to make sure that staff close programs is there anything else I can do to make sure that the data is backed up successfully? Is there a way of automatically closing programs at a certain time? thanks in advance.
